Dispatcher-led triage to reduce futile EMS transport for suspected out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Japan: a narrative review and phased implementation framework [PDF]

Resuscitation Plus
Dispatcher-led triage for suspected out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) may help reduce nonbeneficial emergency medical service (EMS) responses and transport by enabling conservative response modification in narrowly defined cases of obvious death (e.g.
